Title: Honey scraper apparatus
Inventor: ENGEL GRANT ERROL
IPC: B26D7/10
Filed: 2013-03-04
Abstract: An apparatus (10) for cutting honeycomb (35) from a honey frame (30) is disclosed. A traditional method of collecting honeycomb includes removing honey frames from a honey super in a beehive and transporting those frames away from the hives to a processing facility where the honey can be extracted from the honeycomb. However, transportation of honey frames is a laborious exercise because: effort is required to manoeuvre the heavy filled honey frames to a vehicle, frames must be transported to a remote processing facility, and the processed honey frames must be returned to the beehives. It would be more efficient to remove the honeycomb from the frame on site and transport only the honeycomb to be processed. The apparatus includes a frame (30) having an opening for inserting a honey frame (30), and at least one blade (5) supported by the frame and wherein the at least one blade is adapted to pivot between a first position where a honey frame can be inserted into the opening and a second position where the blade will cut the honeycomb (35). An additional blade (6) is also disclosed such that both sides of the frame may be cleared of honeycomb simultaneously. A method and system of collecting honey is also disclosed.
